  • Grading

    All assignments are graded with fail-revise-pass-pass with distinction. The course is graded with 0-5 which is calculated based on assignment performance.

    TPO (Essay) is graded as follows, based on how well the assignments meet the instructed requirements:

    • 1-11 x FAIL = Course grade 0 (irrespective of how assignments are doing otherwise)
    • 11-5 x REVISE = Course grade 1 (irrespective of how assignments are doing otherwise)
    • 4-1 x REVISE = Course grade 2 (irrespective of how assignments are doing otherwise)
    • 0-3 x PASS WITH DISTINCTION = Course grade 3 (provided there're no grounds for lower grade)
    • 4-6 x PASS WITH DISTINCTION = Course grade 4 (provided there're no grounds for lower grade)
    • 7-11 x PASS WITH DISTINCTION = Course grade 5 (provided there're no grounds for lower grade)

    Fail: the submission is missing or it has very little to do with the instructions.
    Revise: the submission does not sufficiently meet the requirements so the student is asked to revise the submission by July 31 2024
    Pass: the submission meets the requirements well enough.
    Pass with distinction: the submission exceeds expectations by, for example, being really well structured, visualised and/or beneficial to the student's individual thesis process.
